Chapter 41: The Two-Moon Festival Dance (Part II)
(There are still two chapters left to make up the arrears...... It's so tiring...... Tear. )

"Second floor?"
Xu Le then noticed that the second floor was unusually quiet compared to the bustling dance floor below, and there were several men in dark waiter costumes in the hallway, watching the people leaning over vigilantly. He looked up and down in bewilderment, and found that except for the president of Ewha University, no one belonging to the school appeared, including those highly respected professors. Could it be that there is any big man on the second floor who needs the principal to accompany him alone?
He glanced at the middle-aged man beside him and said with a smile: "At a glance, you can tell that it must be some VIP from the school upstairs." Even the eldest lady of the Zou family and those young people know the rules, how can I do it if I don't go up? But if I can go up after a while, I will take you with me. β
It had nothing to do with being willing to help people, Xu Le purely thought he was telling a joke, he was just a porter and auditor at Ewha University, and it was good to be able to attend the ball today, although he didn't want to attend - he just wanted to see her.
However, this joke fell on the middle-aged man's ears, but a bright light flashed in his ugly triangular eyes, and he laughed twice, patted Xu Le's shoulder, and didn't say anything more.
......
......
At this time, the dance party has become lively, and those older boys with thicker skins are pretending to be mature, politely sent an invitation to the female classmates wearing various dresses,In this drive,People who were still a little embarrassed also began to move towards the goddess in their minds,Fortunately, the surname of the S1 district is the opposite of the Donglin region,The porridge is indeed a lot,For a while, there were many pairs of successes in the field,The young people who danced with the music were full of happy smiles,The faces of those girls looked a little shy,No matter what they look like,At least at this moment,They are the most beautifulγ
To Xu Le's surprise, there was a girl who had the audacity to take the initiative to invite him to dance, he never thought that his ordinary-looking self would also be favored by girls, and he was surprised, he refused in a panic, and didn't dare to look at the girl's disappointed expression - he actually underestimated his popularity at Ewha University, the student whom Professor Zhou admired the most in the machine training class, and he who set several records in the laboratory building, after the story of the beautiful woman in the plum garden...... already has a secret admirer.
In order to avoid embarrassment, Xu Le subconsciously looked up into the distance, and happened to see Zhang Xiaomeng's action of avoiding his gaze, his heart trembled slightly, knowing that the other party was looking at him just now. He took a deep breath and stared straight over there, staring straight at it for a long time, watching Zhang Xiaomeng gently refuse the invitations of many boys, and did not step onto the dance floor with Hai Qingzhou, the son of the councillor next to him...... The mood is slightly better.
"He's looking at you. Hai Qingzhou looked at the classmates who were happily embracing each other on the vast dance floor, and whispered to the girl beside him.
Zhang Xiaomeng looked ahead, with a faint smile on the corner of her lips, and responded: "I know, but what does this have to do with me?"
Hai Qingzhou smiled and said, "But...... You were peeking at him just now. It seems that your relationship with him is not one of a suitor and a rejector, as you say. β
Zhang Xiaomeng's eyelashes blinked, and after a moment of silence, he said, "It's all over." β
"You really don't want to dance with me? You know I'm getting more and more like you now. In order to hide his sadness, Hai Qingzhou shrugged his shoulders slightly, "Although I know that coming to the dance with me may be for some other reason." β
"I'm sorry. Zhang Xiaomeng said slightly apologetically: "I made it very clear to you last time, I can't accept your kindness." Her expression became a little lonely, and she glanced at the dance floor without a trace, and said, "I was stupid before, I have already hurt one person, and I don't want to hurt a second person." β
Hai Qingzhou knew that she was looking at Xu Le, smiled a little embarrassed, and said with a wry smile: "Unfortunately, I don't even have the qualifications to be hurt by you." β
I have to say, this is a very personable sentence. This kind of young man with a good family background is always easy to show his demeanor in the circle of his own class. For example, the rich children around the two of them, including the young master of the Sun family who had just finished treatment, all looked at everything in the field very politely, without revealing the slightest arrogance.
The circle in which these young people live is very unusual in this lively dance party, because they are too quiet, and it is clear from their dress and temperament that they are not ordinary students of Ewha University. None of them went down to dance, and those students naturally wouldn't have come to invite girls like princesses, if it weren't for the fact that they knew Zhang Xiaomeng and knew that Zhang Xiaomeng was a student at Ewha University. I'm afraid that I won't have the courage to invite her before.
There was only one exception, Shi Gongzi, who was wearing a formal suit, smiled again, ignored the murderous gaze of this group of people, came to them, bowed to Zou Yu very elegantly, and said softly: "Can you dance with me?"
Zou Yu's face was extremely indifferent, she looked at the very beautiful and hateful young man in front of her, and knew that the other party was using that secret to threaten her. After a moment of silence, she took Shi Qinghai without a trace and took two steps to a quiet place, avoiding the ears of those companions, before she said in a very low voice, "What exactly do you want to do?"
Shi Qinghai lowered his eyes slightly, as if he didn't know how to speak, and said slowly: "It's the humble request from before, please dance with me." β
"How can you be so shameless?" Zou Yu's eyes were as cold as knives, and with her fiery red dress, there was a terrifying beauty, "Because of the events of that day, you want to take revenge? You should know what the first dance of the Double Moon Festival Ball represents...... Do you think that I will be threatened by you and bury the life I have longed for for more than ten years?"
Shi Qinghai frowned slightly and looked at the beauty in front of him, and said slowly: "Maybe the future you have been longing for for a long time is not what you really want...... Otherwise, on that night a year ago, how could you get yourself drunk and then casually hand over your chastity......"
......
......
Xu Le squinted at the group of people beside Zhang Xiaomeng, and felt that the atmosphere was a little strange, because several songs had passed, and those brightly dressed men and women still hadn't danced. If they weren't here to dance, why did they come to Ewha University? He keenly observed that the people seemed to be waiting for something to happen...... Suddenly thinking of the conversation with Shi Qinghai in the bar that night, he chuckled in his heart and glanced at Zhang Xiaomeng with great worry.
At this moment, a slap sounded, and Xu Le was surprised to see that in the far corner, the eldest lady of the Zou family angrily poured the champagne in the cup on Shi Qinghai's face, and slapped him hard at the same time. He didn't know what was going on there, and was about to go over to take a look, but was stopped by a middle-aged man beside him.
Although the music in the dance party was soft, the sweet words of countless people added up to a bit noisy, and except for the group and Xu Le, who had been staring at the other side, few people noticed this little episode.
The wet hair was weakly on Shi Qinghai's forehead, he walked back in silence, stared at "uncle", and then stood side by side beside Xu Le, sighing: "The thorny flowers are really wonderful." β
Zou Yu, who likes to wear red, walked back to his partners after refusing Shi Qinghai's threat, but his fingers holding the empty wine glass trembled slightly, and his face was slightly pale.
The middle-aged man standing behind Xu Le and Shi Qinghai suddenly smiled and said, "Qinghai Er, you can change your name to Lianhua in the future." β
At this moment, the Bi-Moon Festival Ball, which had just ended, suddenly became quiet, and the strings of the cello were gently plucked by the luthier to make a humming sound, reminding everyone in the room that someone was about to speak.
The lights dimmed, and a double circular silver-white beam of light hit the second floor, like a double moon that could be seen from the transparent dome at this time. In the beam, the silver-haired president stood in front of the microphone, looked at everyone gently, and said, "Now allow me to introduce you to a wonderful history of Ewha University. β
Applause rang out.
"Ewha University's Bimonthly Festival Dance, I don't know how many happy love stories have been contributed. From the principal smiled and looked at the children downstairs, thinking of the story more than 20 years ago, his mood couldn't help but be a little shaken, he was very grateful to the Tai family for being willing to carry out the process of selecting a dance partner after the dance party started today, at least so that there was no need to worry about harming those simple girls who already had a relationship home. However, he didn't take into account that if the person really wanted to choose a girl who already had a dance partner, it was actually just another way to complete the test of ancestral love.
Among these love stories, the encounter between Tai Zhi, the heir of the Xiushu Foundation, who studied at the school more than 20 years ago, and his wife, who later accompanied him for the rest of his life, is the most moving. The principal continued with a smile.
"I am glad that today Mr. Tai Zhi and his wife's love crystallization is also studying at our school, and he will complete his sincere ceremony at this ball today, and he will invite a lucky lady to be his dance partner...... Of course, if my female students choose to refuse, I will only be proud as the principal. The headmaster chuckled.
The Repair Foundation is the largest private fund in the Federation, and although few people know the real name of the owner of this fund, who doesn't know about this fund? When the principal revealed the identity of the mysterious guest today, there was a burst of excitement at the ball. The girls in the audience suddenly imagined the male classmate surnamed Tai, who had not yet appeared, as a prince on a white horse, and their eyes showed a look of confusion and excitement.
The empty hall was dark, only the full moon in the sky that was about to snuggle together sprinkled silver light through the transparent dome, and the two moonlight-like beams left the location of the principal on the second floor and began to walk slowly.
Everyone knew that the girl who had finally stopped these two rays of light was the dance partner that the mysterious guest had chosen for today. The beam gradually shifted, and the girls, whether they were beautiful or ugly, whether they had a dance partner or not, became nervous. Even if they are not greedy for vanity, but in this fairytale scene...... How can you suppress the longing in your heart?
